 England seems to be doing better in bus mess way than she was. In British trade reports which have just been compiled the information is given that half the increase in English exports for the first six months of 1887 over the corresponding period ill 1886 was owing to an increased demand from the United States. Indeed, but for the exports of iron, steel, cotton and woolen goods to this country. the English dealers in these articles would have experienced most dis astrous season. English trade in general, also, for the first half of the current year shows a larger relative increase over 1886 than American trade does, though, of course, the activity of business in this country is in advance of that in Great Britain for either year. The English railroads, for example, while making but the small advance of two per cent. in gross receipts, were able to add it nearly all to net income, as the operating expenses increased hardly at all. This vas because the additional business was chiefly passenger traffic, while in the United States the increase has been almost altogether in freight. The English banking business, too, shows larger relative advance in profits than that of our own country.
 The addition of aluminium to many metals, says the Engineering and Mining Journal, adds greatly to their strength and incorrodi- bility The "Mitis" castings of wrought iron "a great, and perhaps the greatest, discovery in iron working during the last eentury-are made by adding very minute quantities of aluminium to the iron, lowering its extremely high fusion point, and increasing it's fuidity 30 that the most sharp and delicate lines in the model are reproduced in the casting. In large as we'll as small steel castings the ad- mixture of only 1 per cent. gives greater huidity, facilitates escape of gases and hin- ders the formation of oxide scale At the United States testing laboratories at Water town, Mass, and the Washington navy yard, aluminium bronze, containing 1 per cent. of aluminium and silicon, gave tensile strength of from 95, 900 to 119,0O0 pounds per square inch. 9 per cent. bronze in castings showed with great uniformity 10000 to S0,- 900 pounds tensile strength, and resistance to pressure of from 150, 900 to 160, ,O00 pounds per square inch. This enormous strength, together with it's incorrodibility and cheap ness, will make it invaluable for heavy bear ings and for pumps and machinery exposed to the action of acid, mine water or corroding fumes. Copper and brass rollers have found it too hard for them, but steel mills have no trouble in working it.

A mAssACHUsETTs LAW.

The employers liability act which went into effect in Massachusetts the first of this month is 8 very important piece of legisla- tion. The first section of it provides that where personal injury is caused to an em- ploye, who is himself in the exercise of due care and diligence at the time, CD by reason of auy defect in the condition of the ways, works or machinery connected with or used fn the business of the employer, which arose from or had not been discovered or remedied owing to the negligence of the employer or of any person in the service of the employer and intrusted by him with the duty of seeing that ways, works or machinery were in prop
 CT condition; or @ by reason of the negli- gence of any person in the service of-the enl
 ployer, intrusted with the exercising super intendence, whose sole or principal duty is that of superintendenee; (3) by reason of the negligence of any person in the service of the employer who has the charge or control of any signal, switch, locomotive engine or train upon railroad, the employe, or in case the injury results in death, the legal representa- tives of such employe shall have the same right of compensation and remedies against the employer as if the employe had not been an employc of or in the service of the en- ployer, nor engaged in it's work.
 The next section abolishes the old discrim- ination against the heirs of person who dies instantaneously from an injury, without hay ing consciously suffered. Such circum stance does not invalidate the ability of the heirs to recover under this act. Compensa- tion for injury cannot exceed S4,0OO, but in case of death from $500 to $5,000 may be re- covered according to the degree of culpabili- ty of the employer or of the person for whose negligence he is liable. Notice of &C., ton and true statement of time, place and cause of injury, is required from the party suing within thirty days. The liability holds in case of persons employed by sub-contrac- tors, when it arises from any defect of "ways, works, machinery or plant" and from the employers negligence or that of his agent. If an employe is injured in consequence of a defect he knew of, but of which he had fail- ed to inform his employer, having had reasonable time to do so, he cannot recover. An employer who contributes to an insurance fund or relief society of which the injured person is beneficiary, may prove such fact in mitigation of the amount of damages, in the proportion of his contribution to the whole contribution of the society for this purpose. The act does not apply to domes- tic servants or farm laborers.
 It will be interesting to see how this law works. There is no good reason apparent why it should not be useful

That I7l'1i Tired FeeM7g

The warm weather has a facilitating effect, especially upon those who are within doors most of the time. The peculiar, yet common, complaint known as "that tired feeling," is the result. This feeling can be entirely overcome by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, which gives new life and strength to all the functions of the body.
 "I could not sleep; had no appetite. took Hoods Sarsaparilla and soon began to sleep soundIy; could get up without that tired and languid feeling; and my appetite improVed." R. A. SANFORD, Kent, Ohio.
 Strengthen the System
 Hoods Sarsaparilla is characterized by three peculiarities 1st, the combination of remedial agents; 2d, the proportion; Sd, the process of securing the active medicinal qualities. The result is a medicine of unusual strength, effecting cures hitherto unknown. Send for book containing additional evidence. s'Hood's Sarsaparilla tones up my system, seems to make me over.' J. P. THOMPSON, Register of Deeds, Lowell, Mass.
 "Hood's Sarsaparilla beats all others, and is worth its weight in gold" I. HARRINGTON, 130 Bank Street, New York City.

more easily and rapidly digested, but in reality raw albumen is more easily pepton- ized than the solidly cooked Jumps of al bumen, because the movements of the stomach separate it easily, and it is soon saturated with gastric juice.
 If the appetite gradually returns, and the articles of food named are tolerated in larger quantities, we may intercalate an- other meal; the soup may also be prepared from scraped beef, and the latter eaten with it. Gradually 8 saucerful of the arti- cles already mentioned may be taken every two or three hours. This amount will be sufficient for long time,
 If, under this regimen, gastric digestion takes normal and rapid course, the sense of hunger may be felt oftener than every two or three hours, but the patient should not yield to his cravings. The time will food can be taken, especially properly cooked meat. The opinion that so, called white meat is especially well borne has not always been confined in practice. It may perhaps be the case with pigeon and chick en, &c., but the veal is certainly barely tolerated, owing probably to the large amount of gelatine it contains. As a rule boiled meat is better tolerated than roast; and cold roast better than warm, and this is particularly true of game. With the latter fat gravy, and the fat of pork espec tally, plays a very injurious part. Meat nOS tOO Sdl1oo lS well put Cn6 smoking process will spoil this advantage. The flesh of geese and ducks is difficult to digest.
 Most patients will dislike to dispense with vegetables, but the very slightest of those only should be allowed until after improve ment has made some progress; we may then allow carrots, spinach and tomatoes; lettuce and salads, and especially potato salad, should be strictly forbidden. If the patient chafes under the prohibition of all kinds of preserves, he may when convalescent partake ot steWed cranberries, strained and sweet ened. Dyspeptics cannot bear raw fruit at all.
 In all cases where circumstances will not permit the diet which has been described, milk diet, will be the best thing. Or when place and time are favorable, Krukenberg's direction: "When you are hungry eat but termilk, and when you are thirsty drink but termilk," should be observed. This milk, freed from the large mass of caseine, is a real panacea, and a dietary course of it is easily carried out in the country during the summer season. But caution prescribes that it should not be taken simultaneously with other food, as the rule not to drink when you eat, and not to eat when you drink, is even more imperative for dyspeptics than for persons suffering from adiposity. Patients are most difficult to manage in regard to their diet after they begin to feel better; and when, in consequence of their long fasting and their necessarily reduced condition, a strong desire for food is manifested, an ade- quate addition of fat of the proper consis teney will greatly lessen the danger of excess.

An acre will produce 100000, and they sell in Fredericksburg at 80 cents per 1000. The object is to get them an inch or an inch and a half long, and this requires active picking before they increase this size. A boy will pick 5000 in @ day. Picking them thus early increases the produotiveness of the vine, and, while the season lasts, others are appearing in place of those taken from the vines.

Some interesting facts have been discovered by the parliamentary committee which has under consideration the English perpetual pension list. It is found, for instance, that the office of grand falconer has cost the coun- try more than e2, 1000, 900 since hawking be- came lost sport in England. Yet the Duke of St. Albans still receives 9965 yearly for the office This was one of the sinecures the reform agitators tried to abolish in 1881, but the conservative feeling triumphed, and the duke retained his pension because James II. gave it to one of his ancestors. The list con- taiDs numerous cases of like character. One lady draws few pounds yearly because some of her ancestors had a rent charge on the es- tate of a Roman Catholic who was attainted in Ell. heth's time. Earl Nelson still gets 95, ,OOO year for the admiraPs victory at Trafalgar.

the builders of the new organ for kaum-
akapili Church, and also the one in the
Roman Catholic Cathedral, died in Lon
don, England. The London Musical
Opinion and Trade Review" for febru-
airy, in referring to the death, says;
The firm was established as far back as
17GO bv Henry Bevington (the father OF the
lately deceased gentleman) who instructed
Henry, Junior, in the art OF organ build
ing: in fact. the father introduced his four
sons into his firm, all being now deceased
except one-an expert reed volcer-whO
still remains in the business. 1t may not
be generally known that Mr. BevingtOn
was for a period of thirty years the organ
list of Kings College Chapel. Mr. Beving
ton who was at work up to December 9th
was most energetic man, always superin-
tending his work, in which he had large ex-
perience, being performer as well as d
builder. The firm obtained medals for ex-
ceIIance of tone and workmanship, as fol-
